Sun questions for Bangalore

How high does the sun get in Bangalore?

Bangalore is in the tropics (13.0° N), so the noon sun passes directly overhead — leaving almost no shadow — around 25 April and 19 August. It is lowest at the December solstice, reaching 53.6° above the horizon at solar noon.

How long is twilight in Bangalore?

Civil twilight — from first light until sunrise, when you can still see outdoors without lights — lasts about 21 minutes around the equinoxes and 23 minutes at midsummer in Bangalore. Close to the equator the sun climbs steeply, so dusk turns to night quickly.

When is the earliest sunrise and latest sunset in Bangalore?

The earliest sunrise is at 05:53 around 27 May and the latest sunset at 18:51 around 3 July. They don't fall on the solstice itself because solar noon drifts by up to a quarter of an hour through the year (the equation of time).

How fast do the days get longer or shorter in Bangalore?

Very slowly. Near the equator day length changes by at most 44s from one day to the next.
